The first to give aid in time of disasters. The Red Cross flag flies in 58 nations. Not all carry the Red Cross as a symbol, but' all stand for help in distress when SOS is broadcasted. It is an internation al, national and local organization. serving humanity, in distress. The birth of the Red Cross dates back many years. J. Henri Dunant, a native of Switzerland, suggested the founding of permanent societies of volunteers in all countries to give ser vice to the wounded after witnessing the horrors of the battlefields, which broke the spirit of Napoleon III, Sol ferno causing such horrors. Dunant, with the help of peasant women and children set up first aid stations to save lives of the wounded soldiers. This led to the first conference at Geneva, in 1863. When Clara Barton, superintendent of nurses, for the "Army of James, in our Civil war, went to Switzer land after the civil war. she studied the new Red Cross, devoting seven teen years to persuading the govern ment to adhere to the Geneva confer ence, which we did in 1882. The Red Cross emblem being the reverse of the Swiss flag, white ernes on red ground, was chosen in com pliment to Dunant's native land and the first meeting place. Down thru the ycara this organization has be come world wide in service. ' Parent-Teachers Meet.
